On Mother's Day .....

On Mother's Day
Flowers by her bedside
Longing for her magic touch
She is awake
I wished for her tantrums
Telling me off for walking in the rain
She is silent
I want to tell her
I've done the cooking the way she taught me
She is breathing
Not feeling my touches
Nor hearing my voices
On Mother's Day
She is preparing to go
Without saying a 'Good Bye'

Before the sunset

I want to set you free
From the suffering
The pain
The tears
Everything that's touching you
No more holding on
It's your turn
Do not wait
Time is passing
Set yourself free
Before the sunset
You never walk
Alone in the dawn
May your path
Be filled with blossoms
I hope you see them
In the morning lights
When the butterflies
Sit on your hair
The breeze may try
To whistle them away
Keep your smiles
For the angel of love
I will see you one day
As today is yours
